A -special dispatch to the St. Louis 7.'
publiean from DuQuoln, dated 23d hist.,
ays, tlierc arc no new developments
from the seat of war In Franklin county.
The idea that tlierc is an extensive baud
of Kuklux In Fraukliu county Is fast losing
ground ; that tlierc are an insignificant
few of this klau there is no doubt, but
that they exist in large numbers is not
believed by those whose statements are
entitled to credence. The great
majority of the citizens of
the said county arc law-abiding
people, and it is hoicd that the public
will not regard the Inhabitants as night
robbers and cut-throats, as uilglit bu Im
plied by tho numerous and wild reports
afloat, and it Is the wi-h of all that the
raiders of last Monday night had been
killed outright, as it is feared that justice,
after all this parade, will not get its dues.
Had the Williamson county trouble
been checked in their inclpleucy it is not
at all likely that these latter diflleultics
would have occurred.

places, lies In a room in the hotel. The
wounds are not dangerous aud he will re
cover, unless a change for the
worse takes place. He had a bullet be
hind his right car, one penetrated the
right side of his neck and one went
through his right arm. He confesses to
being a ku-kiux, but says the penally for
revclatlott is death. His inembershiii of
tho band dated back only about one
month. Duckworth claims that bo tired
no shots, being too badly scared to use
his pistol, lie tell from bis horse with
tho full uniform of the ku

a laooraiorysnouiu niso uo erected, on
eiiitauic ground, for tho purpose ot pur
suing mo study of Astronomy. Tho ob
ject glass of the telescope should not be
less than twelve inches In diameter The
study of Physiology should become prac
tical, that (he pupils might become doc
torn. Law Professors should be Intro
duced, and tho study of "How I shall be
come President of the United States"
should bo made a specialty. In History,
thu pupil should study separately and
elaborately, the nine books of Herodotus,
following tills up by Thucldldes, Xeno
phon, Polyblus, Dlodorus, Joscphus,
l'lutarcli, Cassius :uul Dare among the
Grecians, not omitting carclnlscrutlnv of
Egyptian mid Assyrian remains, at the
same time poring orer the volumes of
Ursar, fcallust, Nepos, I.ivy, Tacit u,
Sulllnlns. JustlulnsniMl Msreelllnlus, in
the Unman. And while thus Imbued
Willi the spirit of historical accumula
tion, let them forsake Bancroft and sink
Prccntt into the lowest strata of obliter
ation. Hume, Macaulay, Unite, Gibbon
and Kaullnson should also Iro forgotten.
Tho Cairo High School should not de
scend from their lofty height.
In tho sciences, let the pupils have
plenty of scope. Give tlicni Physics, Min
ing, Mechanical nnd Civil Engineering,
Natural Philosophy, Mlnercology and
Chemistry. They can master tliein, for
"Pupil" says, "He labors under the im
pression that every one Is similar to him
self." Then, there is Comparative Philology
and English literature. Next .oology
including Human Anatomy aud IMiy.-l-
ology. Theje can bo Imparted lu a course
of familiar lectures with dlaglauudle and
microscopic illustrations. I am becom
ing enraptured, "all," as a distinguished
orator of our city said, not long ago at
the High School. "Ah, 1 look forward
into intricate aud closely allied space,
and see upon the cloudless hoiion ol
public prosperity, a glorious future loom
ing up in the distance for the Cairo High
School. Yes ! this school sliall lie known
throughout nil elui-teudom, or if nut so
far, at least throughout Illinois."
Now, that is the kind ol'specch I " dote "
on. Will " Pupil '' please excuse the
above expression V It was hastily wiittcn
aud 1 di-llkc to make n change. Besides
I have been but u few years " accumu
lating the " few branches " with which J
am aciU'iiutcd.
But to proceed. I know, Mr. Editor,
you are with me. lor yon aro "heavy
John " on Improvements. Would thai
we were running the schools ourselves.
But then, for a moment, I forgot. We
have "able teachers and instructors w ho
have labored," aud are laboring " unceas
ingly." Next to Zoology, 1 think Metaphysics,
Philosophy, moral, mental, aud natural,
should be pursued. These should be fol
lowed by Loglcand Psychology, followed
closely by the Evidences ot Christianity,
lu German, at this time, the High School
students should bo reading Faust and
Joan of Are. And If thu student Is not
possessed of brains enough to enlarge
aud enlighten his mind, he should bln-li
with sliamo to say he was never an in
mate of the Cairo High Sciiool, especially
It all theso facilities were dally all'ordcd
him.
N'oxt, aro Political Econoniyaiid littcr-
liallonal Law. As you, Mr. KMtor nn a
politician, anil know tlia lull Value ol
thou inicstoiiable studies, I will give
them toyou to decide upon, hoping that
ifter you have satisfactorily digested
them, they will not act upon you, In the
same manner as did tho watermelon on
your Local.
I am now ladli-d mon lo make a riuo-
tnilon from our learned "Pupil" in re
gard to myself. 1 1 is as follows: "Does
he mean to say, that when a scholar has
passed a satisfactory examination that
lie should live in darkness in regard to
the knowledge imparted to the world by
learned men of other tongues f" I would
not, for an Instant, again be so rash as
to make such an abominably foolish state
ment. For, as I have before mentioned,
my feelings are like those of "Pupil's."
Charles Itudy has lately published, in
three volumes, "The Chinese. Mandarin
Language," aud it is with peculiar
pleasure and unfeigned modesty that 1
present to thu readers of the Bi'i,i.j:tin a
hort notice of this admirable book in
tills place, hoping at the same time that
tho views I entertain on the subject may
bo thu same as tho-e of "Pupil."
Any work must be tested by Us general
usefulness, and not by the good Inten
tions ot its author or even to too great a
degree, by the skill and faithfulness with
which it lias been executed. I think,
upon close examination, Mr. Biuly will
o loiinu to liavo given to the public a
work not only having the merit of being
a labor of love extending over years of
careful study, but one that iiiu-t fill a
growing need, and prove to bo of prac
tical worth concerning tho studv
ol" the Chinese lanirungc. It
may he said that its im
portance is dally increasing. With the
emigration from China continually set
ting lu upon the Pacific coast, and ex
tending Itself even to our most Eastern
cities, a smattering, at least, of the lan
guage of the people becomes of practical
utility to a constanntly growing elas of
mericaus. I- or thu obtaining of such
knowledge I think It would be no more
than light to drop German, or at least
not take up trench, till year after next.
Ihus wo can introduce a new tongue, by
giving preceuence 10 uiiiiicbc. It Is to
this nation that we send our missionaries
to chrlatlanla! and to civilize. And to
know tho first rudiment (the first It'sl of
Eastern wisdom, would not bo amiss to
any pupil of tho High School wishing to
oecomo missionaries. Another urgent
reason why Chinese should be snoken in
our schools, arises from tho fact that it is
- . .
mu language oi one-third of the
unman race,
I am now, according to "Pupil," to
pause.
My paper is almost gone, and my ink
Is getting bad, so that a pause is quite
iiceessury. i win, uiercfore, pause.
Having paused sufficiently, l shall now
proceed,
.... ,1..
"riipir- interrogates me us to what I
would do in ch.so a student was compe
tent to pass with a higher class In nil
studies, except one. "Pupil," with your
brilliant mind, you should have needed
no answer to such a simple question. I
would re-qucstlon Jhlm in his deficient
study, and, were lie a student of promise,
ho would make hi study up in a lew
weeks.
A little inrlhcr on, 1 nut requested to
pause again. This time to perceive an
error. I would politely ask Pupil" not
to request me to pause so frequently. It
becomes tiresome.
For the first time 1 fall lo perceive my
error, lu all other points 1 cannot help
recognizing my mistakes, and "Pupil's"
correct statements. I feel that tills Is an
"age of progress;" (hat the "school ques
tion" Is one of interest ; that it claims
the attention of men of learning; that
"narrow-niiiHled men" cannot under
stand It.that "every one is similar to him
self;" that the "simplest study" requires
time to master Ol It ; that the scholars of
Hie high School are not Newton'. And
here I would make a .suggestion. They
might ; h Napier or Briggs, If they
would confine themselves to the WAir
of ihe Alpfli v.
Kindly, almost nlleetloiiately, O, "Pu
pil," penult me to ask your Honor,
where you n.nl the article to which your
pen lias n 'ponded In the Ilri.i.KTix'r
Was it dark, aud did you fail to distin
guish the print!' If yon did, then, it is
owing to thai, that you have miscon
strued mi much. The third paragraph
from the last In "Pupil's" article Is the
one that is most incomprehensible. Who
Is thH "Pupil"? Is he one of the Board
ofTrii-tces? How docs he know but
that in calls ine an efficient manager nnd
scholarly gentleman, when he h peak
of the Hoard. Could I not be one ol the
Board niy-clf? Or, peradventure, Pupil
may he a teacher lu ono of thu Public
School licpartincnts. EUe, why docs he
trouble himself to make such a "bold as
sertion, that the Cairo Public Schools
have attained tho honor of being equal
or better than any others in the State or
elsou lure?
I will not say that "Pupil" feigns to
understand Thursday morning's article.
I will not siy that lie knows the present
system to bo wrong, nnd yet upholds It.
I m III not say he prevaricates. For sure
ly, now that "Cltleu" has believed
all that "Pupil" said, and inoiu too.
both shtild move side by side.
Then, let us not do away with the
present system of education. The con se
quence would bu too fearful. But to the
already estimable course, let us add tho
abstruse text-books on Cosinotlietle 1
Idealism aud Hypothetical licallsm, so
that when our children have taken thu
places which wc now occupy, we, look
ing back with thu frost of many winters
on our heads, will rejoice to say,
"The Intuitive plan ot education,
now so agreeable to ourcltlzens, was the
great work ot "Citizen" and "Pupil."
Truly, yours. Ciiizk.v.
